Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]The[Am]re's [F]a[C][Am][F][C]
[Am]blood red
circle on the cold dark [G]ground[C]
And the rain [G]is fall[Am]ing [F]down
The [C]church door's [Am]thrown open
I can hear [F]the organ's [C]song,
but the congrega[G]tion's [Am]gone[F]

[Verse 2]
My city of [C]ruins[Am][F][C]
My city is in [Am]ruins[C]

[Verse 3]
Now the [C]sweet bell[Am]s of mercy drift
through the [F]evening [C]trees
Young men on the corner,
[G]like [Am]scattered [G]leaves[F]
The [C]boarded up [Am]windows
and the empty [C]streets
And my [G]brother's down [Am]on h[F]is knees

[Verse 4]
My city of [Am]ruins[F]
[C]My city is in rui[Am]ns[C]
[Am]Come on,

[Verse 5]
rise up, come on, [F]rise [C]up
Come on, [Am]rise up, come on,
[F]rise [C]up
[Am]Come on, rise [G]up, come on, [F]rise up
[C]Come on, ris[G]e up[Am][G][F][C]
[Am][F][C][Am]

[Verse 6]
[F][C]
Now there's tears [Am]on the pillow,
darling, where we [G]slept[C]
And you took my [G]heart
[Am]when you [F]left
Without [C]your sweet kiss, [Am]my soul,
it's lost, [G]my [C]friend
Tell me how [G]do I be[Am]gin a[G]gain?[F]

[Verse 7]
My city of [C]ruins[Am][F]
My [C]city's in [Am]ruins[F][C]

[Verse 8]
Now [C]with [Am]these hands
[F]With these hand[C]s
I pray, Lord
With [Am]these hands
[F]With these hands
I [C]pray for the strength, Lord
With [Am]these hands
[F]With these hands
I [C]pray for your love, Lord
With [Am]these hands
[F]With these hands
[C]I pray for the lost, Lord
With [Am]these hands
[F]With these hands
I [C]pray for your chains, Lord
With [Am]these hands
[F]With these hands
I [C]pray for the faith, Lord
With [Am]these hands
[F]With these hands
I [C]pray for your love, Lord
With [Am]these hands (come on)
[F]With these hands (come on)
[C]Come on,

[Verse 9]
[Am]rise up, come on, [F]rise up
[C]Come on, ris[Am]e up, come on,
[F]rise [C]up
Come on, [Am]rise [G]up, come on, [F]rise up
[C]Come on, ris[Am]e up,[G] come on, ris[F]e up
[C]Come on, ris[G]e up[Am][G]
